Connecti WCF service through IP address

Question

0.00/5 (No votes)

See more:

In one of my WCF application project, I can view the service page through browser, e.g. http://localhost:19648/Service1.svc. In this scenario, in web.config.

XML

<baseAddresses>
    <add baseAddress="http://localhost:19648/Service1" />
</baseAddresses>

However, if I change localhost to my CPU's IP, like that http://10.10.22.168:19648/Service1, the page can't be loaded: The connection has timed out. In this scenario in the web.config,

XML

<baseAddresses>
    <add baseAddress="http://10.10.22.168:19648/Service1" />
</baseAddresses>

How can this problem be fixed? Thanks.

You may also try by using useRequestHeadersForMetadataAddress in the serviceBehaviors of your web.config.
